This is the draft thread for the 2014 Alt-Mock Draft Game. Because of the lack of participants, some people will be in charge of controlling up to 4 teams.

Rules are the same as the normal mock draft game.

1. 24 hours for the first 2 rounds.

2. 16 hours for the third round.

3. 12 hours for rounds 4-7.

4. PM the GM that is after you to notify them when their turn is up.

5. Bold your picks (feel free to add any commentary you might want to add, or pictures/ fake Mayock comments/ etc. You don't have to do it, it just makes it more fun to me.)

6. If your time runs out, your pick will be passed and you can make the selection any time afterwards.

7. If you know you will be gone for a while and you will be up soon, PM your mini-draft board to someone that you know will be online or someone who will be picking after you in that round.

8. If anyone else wants to hop in late and take over for some of the extra teams to lighten the burden on anyone who is currently participating in this mock draft, post in the sign-up thread for consideration.

9. No draft trades. We'll end up having some people who wait forever for trade offers if this is allowed and we just don't have the time for that. With less than 30 days until the draft.

I don't really like any of this year's QBs over the available skill players in the top 5. The only way that I was going to pass on Clowney, whom I believe is the most physically gifted DE I've seen in the 20 years that I've been a football fan, was if there was an Andrew Luck in this draft, which there isn't. I take Clowney and pair him up with JJ Watt to terrorize the AFC South for the next 8-10 years. There has been a lot of talk about Clowney's lack of effort or dedication but the fact of the matter is that he does everything that you ask of him; he just doesn't go above the call of duty like Jerry Rice would. However, I think you can bring him in and make him work with JJ Watt and push him to the level where he is not only more talented than everyone else, but also works harder than anyone else. As the Seahawks showed, defense and pass rush wins championships, the pairing of Watt and Clowney with a developing Whitney Merciles playing on the opposite end has the potential to be even more dominant in year 1 than the SF trio of A. Smith, J. Smith, and Brooks currently is. That will tremendously improve our chances to win games.

Mayock's Take: "When Clowney wakes up in the morning, he is the best defensive lineman on the planet. Now it just depends on him whether or not he capitalizes on that talent. You take him here and pair him up with JJ Watt on one side and Whitney Merciles on the other, who are you going to double team? He's a potential once in a generation type of talent and I don't think you can pass on that."

Welp, Clowney and Watkins were the two non-qb's I would have liked to see on-the-board for the Jags. Since they aren't the Jags are going to restack their board and look who comes out on top.......

With the third pick of the first round of the Chiefs Planet Alt Mock the Jacksonville Jaguars select Johnny Manziel, QB, Texas A&M.

Yeah, if they went anywhere but QB with the draft turning out this way, it would be a huge surprise. However, there have been reports that they're looking at taking another OT in the top 5 even though they took Joeckle last year already. Apparently they really want to improve in the trenches, lol.
